Read it all back, clearly I didn’t compare Cummings to a ‘pae-do’, why would I do that?

I compared the impact his actions and dishonesty have had on the Government’s and PM’s credibility with the impact on other professions that people such as pae-dophiles (teaching, social work, the clergy), ‘bent’ coppers, and crooked accountants or councillors have on theirs.

The point is that rather than helping and supporting the Government he has discredited them.

This has absolutely nothing to do with the behaviour of the extreme right or left. It is entirely to do with the rights and wrongs of Cummings’ actions, the contempt he has shown for the public and the extent to which he has discredited the Government and distracted everyone from the task of defeating Coronavirus. He has become a liability.
Why would you do it God only knows, but do it you did until a sequence of backtracking and rather lame explanations about how you didn't mean it ensued. Had you not been an English teacher I could maybe believe it aas open to interpretation, but you are/were and so very aware of exactly how you word things.
